Does anyone else finds that the freeview reception is getting much worse by the day? I wonder if they want to put us all off to watch everything on-line....if we are lucky we now get itv and channel 4 programs but later in the night they all diappear (breaking up first) gradually. Very annoying

[doganjo]

I get a lot of 'no signal' on my big new TV with Freeview built in, but my old one with a separate box never breaks up at all says she touching her oak desk

mines crap too. retuning can help, but i think im gonna have to bite the bullet and fit a proper aerial. not that its a major loss now star trek isnt on.

[northfifeduckling]

just retuned and now only have 800 - 804 left , channel  4 and children 

[deepinthewoods]

hey dont blame me!!!
 
dvd??

[robert waddell]

and there was me thinking it was just my freeview box that was crap   both boxes were replaced with new ones and they have worked alright for a few months  now it is intermittent that stv and up fragment     be interesting if there is any techice ones out there

[northfifeduckling]

interesting that the website says there is nothing wrong with the transmitters 
DITW, you're off the hook , I retuned before you said so 
dvd (thanks , lovefilm), although it's French with subtitles and a bit much, after that i-player, I suppose or early bed with a book

We have Freesat since Sky put their prices up once too often.  It's enough for us, just lose the signal a bit if the weather gets too bad, but on the whole it's fine, I'd recommend it,

  Just chuck the TV out of the window!!! We haven't had one for nearly 6 years now, also too slow broadband to watch anything on Iplayer - but don't miss it at all. We go to the library at least twice a month, I do my fibre stuff    and anyway on a recent holiday when we had a TV in the B&B - there was only cr@p on... and if we really want to watch a film a DVD on the computer is great - no adverts either!

[Moleskins]

Freesat is better than Freeview, get the slightly bigger dish to avoid problems with break up in bad weather.
Sky put a cheapie in as there standard installation.

[Lesley Silvester]

I've been nearly two years without TV as well as don't miss it.  If I want to watch anything (which is rarely more than Corrie and Casualty) I use iplayer and ITV player.  Sounds like I'm not missing much now we're all digital.

[Roxy]

Ours is hopeless, too.  We only get about 6 channels including BBC and ITV, and on nights like tonight, with high wind and heavy rain, you can forget seeing anything.  Most people round here are in the same boat with their free view reception.
What was the point of us all upgrading tellys and buyingboxes!!

[northfifeduckling]

We are not ready to ditch the tele , if I was living on my own I might be...
Do you need a dish for freesat or does a receiver do it? We couldn't get sky (and I wouldn't pay Murdoch a penny if I had to  ) because of the hill so freesat wouldn't work either I suppose...

[heidih]

mine can be rubbish too..especially the music channels which i like to blast out while doing my housework when i on my own ...haha..get it sorted freeview.!...

[tizaala]

Next time any of you go to europe on holls , just buy the big dish and box and tv , most of the country is within the eurosat footprint  , for free......all you have to do is learn a few languages.
